What reading level is The Romance of the Bibliophile Society book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He also engraved on wood the first plate made for the Society and this reproduced on copper by the late J. W. Spenceley has been used for a subtitle in nearly every publication we have put forth, — being always changed to suit the name, year, and limit of each work. Our Seventh Year Book contains Spenceley's last important piece of engraving; he finished [ 14 ] it when in the last stages of the slow but surely fatal malady which snatched him from us in the very prime of life. He took infinite p...ains with that work, making no less than five dis- tinct changes after the original sketch. He de- clared it to be one of the most satisfactory pieces he ever did. The Year Books of the Society contain vastly more of literary value than the term "Year Book" would imply. Indeed the reports of committees and officers form but a small part of their contents. They contain many original articles and essays on topics of interest to bib- liophiles, and are also used as a sort of repos- itory, so to speak, for unpublished literary gems that are of insufficient length to justify their pub- lication in separate volumes.
